Ganymede Spa has no need for booking, while not in Silom it is easier to reach than the Saphan Khwai shops. Men club in Sukhumvit is also walk-in. X: @MenClubSKV31

I went in with realistic expectations after hearing some initial impressions, and unfortunately my experience tracked almost exactly the same pattern. The shop itself is very nice, clean and upscale, though showers are small. I ordered a 60 min aroma massage, at around 1300 Bath, already expensive compared to other places. My masseur came to greet me with very limited English. A bit awkwardly he stayed in the room while I took a shower. Either the guy gives me the privacy or he joins me in the shower. On the table (without a face cradle!), within the first few minutes of contact, it was obvious the masseur lacked real technique. The pressure was unfocused, transitions were clumsy, and there was no sense of flow or trained body mechanics. Once you’ve had a few proper massages, you know immediately. The masseur himself was very much a “guy next door” type. Young, casual, oversized baggy clothes, more student than therapist. His loose T-shirt kept brushing into me throughout the session, which only added to the distraction and reinforced the sense that this wasn’t a professional setup. I was so bored that when he floated the idea of a hand job, I declined outright. I just wanted the session to end. Conclusion: Titan remains significantly overpriced for what it delivers. Between the weak massage skills, inconsistent professionalism, and lack of atmosphere, it’s hard to justify the rates. If you’re in Silom, you’ll get a clearly better massage and more satisfying extras at Prestige or Ssense, both nearby and operating at a much higher standard. If you want cheaper setups go to Green or Avarin. Alternatively just go to Arena in the same place as Titan. They never disappoint.

Perhaps only at GB.

Hence my comment about the conservative outlook of the forum members. With your emphasis on dignity (and Spoon would also add respect for privacy), you put yourself broadly in that line of thinking. And you both have voiced opinions like this before. I say that free of any judgement. While you might argue with the label, It is a position it is easy to argue for, and it adds a more respectful atmosphere compared to another forum that many here are familiar with. Vinapu’s position seems more postmodern in comparison, and it stands on, how should I put it, a bit rethorically shaky foundations.

According to my reliable source, the flamboyant Spanish guy is a regular punter at GB and he always tips generously like that.

I have accepted Vinapu’s premise of subjectivity. Good service or performance would be to amenable to subjective valuations, and also chemistry with customer, whereas information about sexual orientation is a more objective marker. It has value as an indicator. For some people it has value to know this indicator because they believe: Gays provide less mechanical service Gays will usually be versatile if prepared and/or be willing to kiss Whereas others prefer straights due to larger choice Less drama, more to the point in providing service However, these are all moot points as these kinds of reviews won’t happen here. Just as an FYI, sexual orientation would be less important for me to know when I’m going to Jey Spa, as I find performance there to be consistently high always. However, my two favourites there are both gay.

He would be a straight guy who would be using kamagra. The gel version. 😅

You have voiced this opinion many times. While enjoyment is subjective, a review could cover several aspects that are objective and of interest to new people. For example is the guy straight or gay, does he kiss? Absolute subjectivity look more like a cop-out. @12is12 There is in fact a non-public section on this forum for reviews. It is not used much, either due to the conservative nature of the forum members or because people are generally unaware of it. Posts there receive very little engagement.

A recent review by a Thai local indicated that the price point at Titan is a bit high compared to what you receive in terms of quality of premises and non-tangibles. They would expect a little foot bath first and en suite rooms for that price. When it comes to extras… Suffice to say that you need to pick your therapist carefully.

I would say there is a nuance of a difference between «what I personally find attractive» and objectively good looking. Posters here should distinguish between the two. However, that does not mean that anything goes in the looks department and that everything is subjective when reality is otherwise.

I have only experienced this at Sala Daeng station, and only very recently, not any other places.

I have been asked to show my passport on several occasions recently when trying to recharge my rabbit card at Sala Daeng station. I have solved that by recharging at more peripheral stations where a passport was not asked for. Scrutiny is much more intense now.

Thanks for sharing your experience with the freelancer. It is interesting to read about such new experiences. You were right about withholding price information. Best not to open that can of worms.

For massages with twunks, have a look at Klover and History of Massages. Ssense and Prestige got a fair number too. All of these are S to SS places, but of course you can get lucky. Glam’s and Jey spa are H places with a fair number of ripped twunks. You can expect masseurs who has invested a fairly substantial amount of aesthetic labour into their bodies to know their market value and ask for tips at a higher range. At these places mentioned you need to book in advance, connect to their Line accounts.

On your way to 15M you can stop by and enjoy the exhibition. Who knows, maybe it will be more satisfying than many of the massage shops in the area…

There have been similar viewpoints such as that expressed on this forum too in ages past. As I mentioned in another thread there are operational costs involved with the non-Thais. This might increase in the future if current visa exemption practice is upheld. As to the main question posed by OP and also mentioned by others on this thread: no, there is no increase in minimum tips. What you see on Phetboy AKA boyboy LINE feed are the outcall tips which has always been higher. The incall tips have remained the same. What you do see however is a more explicit segmentation of the market especially by Fafa Spa who has a large segment of Chinese customers (who are not used to a tipping culture). There they have begun to be more explicit about the minimum tips prices between H and S service. Also some boys have significantly higher minimum tips e.g. 3000, however that is nothing new as a few boys have always had something in short supply but in high demand, and priced themselves accordingly.

In effect that will be an additional operating cost for bar staff which must be borne by someone down the line…

Old topic I know, but if you’re in the Gangnam area try JRBar (Loba). It is a host bar with bottle service, many English speaking hosts. Specialises in Whisky and Champagne.

Kaikan Onsen: First Impressions Straight away you’ll notice how different Kaikan feels compared with some of the older saunas in Bangkok like Sauna mania. There’s a modern sleekness to the building, a strong Japanese aesthetics/minimalist vibe. Plenty of pools and zones, a real men‑only playground. It has a spacious main pool and a long jacuzzi pool beside it. It is the only onsen style men facility with outdoor pool in Bangkok. All others are entirely indoors. The Crowd & Vibe This place is not cliquey in the way that some places can feel (“you must know someone, you must be part of a group…”). It leans open and inclusive. Body types? Everything from lean twinks to more mature guys, a lot in their 30s to 40s, comfortable in their bodies, relaxed rather than hyper‑sculpted. With an occasional bear. Age range seems broader too, older guys show up, they mix in, and there’s less of that “everyone must be 23 and ripped” pressure than in some rivals. Please do your research on the onsens before you go. Ryuu onsen for example is notorious in being cliquey and making those who don’t fit their criteria feel unwelcome. While the onsens in Bangkok does not have clear age boundaries like many saunas in Japan. That does not mean you are made to feel welcome everywhere (!) Facilities Worth Mentioning Outdoor pool: one of the few gay men‑only onsen/sauna venues in Bangkok that features a proper outdoor pool area. Multiple zones: steam room, sauna, milky bath, cold pool, and a “cave”‑style milky pool that gets a lot of thumbs up for mood. Lockable cabins and private rooms upstairs, good for chilling or more discreet chats. The place is “busy but not chaotic” and the crowd “friendly, educated”. Please bring condoms and lube if you intend to spend early time in the lockable or not so lockable cabins upstairs. If you want to attend the secret hour, then lube and condoms are provided free of charge. The “Secret Hour” There’s a special moment from around 8:30 pm upstairs where things shift. Models in glowing necklaces appear; and are available for fun in public. The vibe becomes more party‑charged, play enters into the mix, orgiastic. If you’re comfortable with more “social” or “interactive” atmospheres, this is when the scene deepens. Pro Tips: Arrival earlier in the evening gets you better space in the pool areas; if you turn up late, you might find the premium spots taken. While the place feels inclusive, staff are a bit tight lipped. Pricing is transparent but premium compared with some older saunas (450B during weekend). Also be aware of the day (complete nude day etc check their facebook beforehand) Also you will be informed which models will be attending the secret hour. I will not review the facilities in depth as this has been done on YouTube:

Updates: Dragon and Koi has now been renamed Rainbow Dragon. It now also has a sister bar next to G’s called «Unicorn». Staff from Dragon work there once a week in rotation. I noticed that the main bar seems to have more customers these days at least on the weekends.

My guess is that you offed either #33 or #17 from Goodboys.

The Prince is primarily a walk-in place so Line is mostly unneeded. I will send you the Lines of the other two.

I know Ssense and Wabi Sabi can handle walk-ins, but bookings are strongly advised for the popular boys. They have updated pictures on Line. So Line chat is the easiest method to book…

The Thai middle class got a notorious debt problem. So his story is very familiar.
